I'm almost ready to setup my refrigeration rig.. Someone asked me what I was going to do about "pin warming" on the CPU.. I decided to make a small heating coil to put on it similar to the one supplied with a Vapochill.. I got it to work.. Too good infact! If I hook it up to the 3.3v line of the PSU it gets hot enough to melt the plastic I have it enclosed in!
My question is this.. If I want to drop the heating coil temp, is this correct?
Watts = Amps x Volts, and Amps = Volts / Resistance
So if I give it 5V and I use a 2ohm resistor, I should get
12.5 Watts of heat??
I hope I'm doing this right & not just looking like an idiot.
